<Lord_Nightmare> ej5: ask balrog about those. a friend of his has a few tubes of NOS 8912 and 8913 parts
<Lord_Nightmare> but they're most likely not for sale :(
<Lord_Nightmare> there's only maybe at best 20 of each anyway
<Lord_Nightmare> so not enough for any sort of commercial product

<ej5> probably a 386 memory expansion board
<ej5> lots of motherboard vendors did that in the 386 era
<cr1901_modern> Hmm interesting... never heard of that (though that's not saying much :P)!
